Chapter 389 Things got worse
Jiao Lian was also stunned, looking at the gun that was still emitting black smoke in Mao Wenlong's hand, and said nothing.
Zhu Guozheng felt it was even more incredible. He did not expect Mao Wenlong to do something that made people feel happy!
At first, Mao Wenlong, who was still in the General's Mansion, was still very patient and met the Cossack cavalry leader Batloskiv. At this moment, Mao Wenlong, who was still patiently enduring Batloskiv's humiliation, was extremely determined to shoot the Cossack cavalry representative on the spot!
Even Mao Wenlong himself could not believe that things would come to this point, but if he wanted to make the majority of the Ming people who had newly moved here to settle down together and unite, he could only do this!
The Cossack cavalry is indeed powerful, but it is just a powerful cavalry. If the people are disappointed, the Ming Dynasty will not be able to gain a foothold here in the future.
Therefore, Mao Wenlong had to shoot this beast who attempted to trample on the dignity of the people of Daming!
Batlowskiff fell directly to the ground, his bloody head hit the ground, his eyes wide open, perhaps before he died, he had never figured out why he, a nobleman from the Rakshasa Kingdom, was killed so easily.
Jiao Lian also walked towards several of Batlowskiff's subordinates, without using a gun, he drew out the knife and ended the lives of these subordinates as quickly as possible.
The whole process was fast, but to everyone's eyes, it seemed that in a moment, the whole world changed.
"Drop it to the mass grave, clean up the streets, and commander and officers above the commander will come to the General's Office immediately!"
After Mao Wenlong finished speaking, he got on his horse first and threw the whip back to his general's mansion.
The people were very excited and excited. They could see their parents and officials taking the lead for themselves and killing such evil-like long-haired ghosts directly. For them, it was more exciting and inspiring than watching a show.
But for officials at all levels who are familiar with the current war situation in the general environment, this is not a good thing, but an extremely bad thing!
Even Zhu Guozheng and Jiao Lian, who were still very disgusted and hated the hairy ghost, had no expression of excitement on their faces at this time.
They all knew that the focus of the court is in the south now. In addition to the necessary key passes and heavy troops left to prevent Jiannu, almost all the elite mobile forces were concentrated in the south, and strategic resources were given priority to the south to deal with the extermination of Zheng Zhilong. In addition, important military figures like Lu Xiangsheng were transferred from Liaodong to Nanjing.
Therefore, for the Miaojie officers and soldiers at the northernmost end and close to the Jiannu forces, it is undoubtedly an extremely difficult thing to resist the attack of the Cossack cavalry without strong support. They might even fall into a situation of being attacked on both sides, otherwise they would not be humble to negotiate with these Cossack cavalry who were just barbaric.
But as the general officer, Mao Wenlong chose to shoot these Cossacks who dared to offend the people of the Ming Dynasty when his Ming Dynasty was defamed again. This was undoubtedly a worse behavior.
Originally, because the Ming army and the Cossack cavalry came here for expansion, and the conflict of territorial competition was also arisen, but now the direct killing of their noble representatives undoubtedly exacerbated this contradiction, making the possibility of peace talks possible completely. In the future, it is difficult to make the already cruel and rude Cossack cavalry willing to put down their swords and guns and talk to themselves.
Even Mao Wenlong himself knew that his behavior violated the will of Emperor Zhu Youxiao of Ming Dynasty, and exacerbated the changes in the situation, which even led to the deterioration of the matter.
But Mao Wenlong also believed that he was right to do this. He even believed that doing so would indeed intensify the conflict between his Ming army and the Cossack cavalry, but at least it would allow the Cossack cavalry to restrain themselves when facing his Ming army, and realized that his side was not afraid of his Cossack cavalry to be willing to negotiate peace, and at least to avoid more unnecessary casualties between the two sides.
But Mao Wenlong did not dare to confirm what His Majesty Zhu Youxiao was thinking. Since the Yuan Chonghuan incident, Mao Wenlong has become more cautious, especially because he was inexplicably afraid of his superiors and His Majesty Zhu Youxiao, so he was very worried that His Majesty Zhu Youxiao would punish him for this.
Mao Wenlong finally found Li Changfeng, the assistant general of the Governor, and asked him whether he would delay the report of rashly shooting Batlowskyv and his subordinates, and directly told the Governor General Li Changfeng to write a letter to him.
Li Changfeng, the assistant general of the governor, is considered a very understanding person, but he is also selfless in character, so he is unwilling to delay time and commit fraud for Mao Wenlong.
Seeing that Li Changfeng refused to agree, Mao Wenlong had to give up. While the assistant general Li Changfeng made the truth, he also made a promise, that is, he would try his best to fight the Cossack cavalry once in the next time, which prompted him to come to us personally for peace.
...
But in fact, before Li Changfeng and his memorial arrived, Zhu Youxiao had already learned about the incident and the reason from the Jinyiwei in advance.
Zhu Youxiao was not angry when he found out, but was very happy: "It's not bad it's Mao Wenlong. I have Gu Sanmazi in the south of the Ming Dynasty. The future of the north is Mao Wenlong and Mao."
Although it is very certain that Mao Wenlong would rather make the situation more complicated than teach these beastly behaviors that are not arrogant to the Ming people, Zhu Youxiao also knew that doing so would only aggravate bilateral conflicts and even give Jiannu an opportunity to take advantage of it.
Fortunately, the farthest vision at this time is that the Jiannu who wanted to conquer the Ming Dynasty did not have such long-term plans. For them, who were separated by the Daxinganling and the Outer Xinganling, they did not know that there is a chance to break the encirclement now.
Therefore, Zhu Youxiao had to immediately instruct Mao Wenlong to try his best to fight a beautiful battle against the Cossack cavalry in the near future, and it must be won, which prompted the Cossack cavalry to take the initiative to seek peace with him in the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Youxiao didn't know if Mao Wenlong could do this, but as the emperor, Zhu Youxiao had to make the worst plan, that is, after being provoked by the Cossack cavalry, it was very likely that the entire Ming Dynasty would lose its vast land north of the outer Xing'an Mountains. Therefore, Zhu Youxiao had to order the Beihai Fleet to temporarily remove half of its troops back to Liaodong, and replenish supplies to Houhai Road and Miaojie, and give sufficient logistical support to the Ming army such as Mao Wenlong who were standing in this area.
Mao Wenlong himself was also making the worst preparations. After taking advantage of the fact that he shot the Cossack nobleman Bartrowskif, would he give up all the newly occupied and newly built cities?
Therefore, Mao Wenlong had to shrink his strength again and directly announced that he would temporarily abandon the market towns below a thousand people, concentrate his limited troops and firepower in two important towns, Miaojie and Longshanwei, and find an opportunity to teach these arrogant Cossack cavalry the most painful lessons.
However, in this case, since the representative of the Massac nobles was killed, the Cossack cavalry also caused a certain degree of chaos, and this just took a long time to give Mao Wenlong the opportunity to send cavalry to attack the Cossack cavalry.
